Arnot-Vestal meeting tomorrow...

Hey you awesome people!  Just wanted to give a shout out to all of you.  I probably won't make it to the meeting tomorrow.  The Harford Fair is this week and I have to work at the fairgrounds in the Stampin' Up booth, then my sister is arriving from Kentucky later Wednesday night...

but most importantly, I have my PATS on Thursday morning!!  My surgery date is September 10th at Wilson.  So just wanted to let you know in case I don't make it to the meeting...

I just want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all of you for welcoming me into your group and being such a wonderful part of this process for me!  I've come to love you all as family and know that I couldn't have come this far without you.

See you in October on the Loser's Bench!

Love you all!

Hi Tina, is your surgeon with Arnot Bariatric?

Edit: Oops, I see you have him listed under your avatar!  Never mind! :)

Well I do hope the PATS goes off without a hitch and that your sister has a pleasant fly in from Kentucky. By the looks of it I dont know if Im gonna make it to the meeting tomorrow but I hope you have fun at the Fair and that your sister has a great stay. How long will you be in Wilson for? Since your in my area I just might pay you a visit =). Stay strong woman, youve come along way and your gonna do just great!!

ps. thanks for the kind words of encouragement they were well appreciated!!

I should be in for 2 days.  I'm not really sure how long they'll keep me.  Would love to see you!

    good luck with your PATS! I will be saving you a seat right next to me on the LOSERS bench! See you on the 10th. I will be stopping in to check on ya!!

Thanks so much Sherri!  I was only half kidding when I said I was going to wheel my IV pole across the street to attend the meeting LOL!  Last name is Sieben so you can find my room....

lol...half kidding???? I may just prop you up in a wheel chair and push you across the street to group . I will find your room. See you then if not before! If you have any questions all you got to do is ask... I should of gave you my cell # ...I am gonna send you a private message with that just incase you need to talk

Mickey would flip out if I showed up!  I can just see the introductions... "Hi, my name is Tina, and I had RNY about 10 hours ago...."

wonder if anyone else has done/thought about that?  I might be the first one who has the surgery on a support day though, so who knows?

Tina,

Good luck and enjoy your sisters visit.take care and keep up the good work cannot wait to OFFICIALLY welcome you to the other side.

you guys are so sweet!  I really missed group yesterday.  I should have gone anyway.  My sister spent most of the time sleeping... can't understand why, it's only a 16 hour drive and she did it straight through!

I'd love to have you visit after the surgery!  Then I can bombard you with more questions LOL!

Hopefully see you at the fair tonight!  I'm in the founder's hall, right next to the floral hall when you come in the main gate... OR, go to the midway and look for the firetrucks.  Turn up that little alley, and my building is right behind the "gator coaster"...

See you later!
